I just noticed your close on Wikipedia:Redirects for discussion/Log/2023 April 4#Heavy metal in Islamic countries. Though I am obviously the nominator on this, I don't see how in the discussion's current state how it would not result in a "no consensus" close or a relist. The "comment" by Duckmather seemed to bring up a potential WP:REDLINK and ambiguous issues with the redirect's title, and my comment on the aforementioned comment chain indirectly contradicted Jay's "keep" stance. For these reasons, I'm just not seeing a "keep" close in this discussion's current state. Steel1943 ( talk) 18:58, 18 April 2023 (UTC)
It cannot be assumed that all readers make an exclusive, synonymous connection between the words "Islamic" and "Muslim". In fact, I can tell you for a fact that I don't, and honestly have no interest to discover the connection between the two words.The first statement is nominally true, but isn't really relevant to the redirect; the question at hand is not whether "all readers see an exclusive and synonymous connection between Islam and Muslim" but rather whether "ANY readers see an overlap between these topics AND are there no topics whose access is obscured by the imprecise use of 'Islamic' here". Your second assertion in the quote, that you see no possible connection between Islamic and Muslim seems unreasonable: while Islamic most precisely refers to the religion and Muslim most precisely refers to the people who practice the religion, it is extremely common for English speakers to colloquially use them interchangeably. signed, Rosguill talk 19:32, 18 April 2023 (UTC)

I put in another request after the trial stopped, but it has gone unanswered for four days.

I've redirected to Vanuatu national football team (as a possible search term), which people seem to forget that's an option at AfD. He seemed to be somewhat a bit of an important figure in the Island's national football and seems to do a lot for them. I thought I saw enough for WP:BASIC, so I am surprised with the delete verdict. Alas, I guess that happens know. All the best, Govvy ( talk) 15:01, 5 June 2023 (UTC)
Hello! I just wanted to give you a heads up that I did a partial revert of one of your edits, in case you wanted to revert or discuss on the talk page. The article you mentioned did lead with mentioning the number of U.S. deaths, but, on the second page, it mentioned studies of Brazilian and Italian cases, though it didn't have a year cap on them, so I was cheating a bit (I figured if there were dozens in the U.S. and some amount per year in other places, it was fair to say dozens of incidents globally—arguably a WP:SYNTH issue depending on how you view the basic math/count exception.) Still, to be safe, I reinserted the sentence but added citations to each study (and a couple more) rather just rely on the Lee-Kelland & Finlay study. It's ... really hard to read as a diff, but here's the diff: I'd suggest just scrolling to the explanatory note towards the bottom of the article.-- Jerome Frank Disciple 15:55, 6 June 2023 (UTC)
Hey, hoping this isn't weird. I've been working on that ImportGenius article, mostly because the IPhone redirect didn't make too much sense considering the more recent press coverage related to the war between Russia and Ukraine. It seems that they're infrequently the sole focus of an article, but they're often the sole source of data and/or analysis mentioned in the article.
https://www.wsj.com/amp/articles/chinese-drones-still-support-russias-war-in-ukraine-trade-data-show-cd39d40b https://www.nytimes.com/2023/05/15/business/economy/russia-airlines-sanctions-ukraine.html https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2023-05-02/russian-gold-is-in-hands-of-obscure-firms-as-jpmorgan-hsbc-exit Just to assess, do you think these articles are noteworthy in relation to ImportGenius? I don't think the inclusion of them as a source is trivial in the recent coverage, the content seems non-routine and independent. Any thoughts? I'll keep editing the article for now but I'd like to know what you think about the notability here.

Regarding the closure here, I think you have it the other way around - Template:User MiszaBot/Config was the one which was voted as a delete, and User:Lowercase sigmabot III/config was the one that had discussion about being turned into a wrapper or something else (and should therefore be the no consensus one).

Hello,
I just wanted to bring up that I did not accuse anyone of a nationalistic POV, but rather Khirurg. I claimed that he often reverts edits without discussing and have tried to prove that by clear and convincing evidence.
Thank you. AlexBachmann ( talk) 16:03, 7 June 2023 (UTC)
(unindent) @Rosguill: Speaking of aspersions, here is a small sample of what I am regularly subjected to:
This is just a small sample from recent days, but I could go on and on, it's basically non-stop at this point. There a number of things I want to work on, but I basically can't because I am consistently sidetracked with stuff like this. I can just easily provide examples of tag-teaming behavior, for example here [2]. If you look at the contribs history of the accounts removing the info, they all have something in common. I had previously filed at ANI giving a massive amount of evidence, but it seems it was filibustered [3]. I am a veteran editor and I don't make accusations lightly. But there is much more to the story than what the above editors are telling you. Thanks, Khirurg ( talk) 16:39, 8 June 2023 (UTC)

Hi Rosguill. Some days ago you gave AE-logged warnings to Khirurg and AlexBachmann for personal attacks against each other. If you look at their editing history, they are edit warring over several articles with each other. They are also exchanging accusations on articles' talk pages and edit summaries, or making other off-topic comments. Some instances. I think that that edit summary with unproven WP:STALK accusations is far a from what is expected from editors in a content dispute. An admin noted on the talk page of Greece that AlexBachmann breached WP:POINT with their edit [8] as a "tit-for-tat" edit and called it an unhealthy battleground approach to editing. Khirurg , however, added unproven accusations of WP:STALK and WP:CIR [9]. Repeatedly accusing another editor in content disputes of stalking and lack of competence without proper evidence are very serious personal attacks. Khirurg keeps responding to AlexBachmann with accusations. The general discussion there does not seem concentrated on the content dispute itself. On Fier there is another inflammatory edit summary by Khirurg [10]. They are reverting each other on multiple articles. I think that an admin should take a look because this is becoming more and more unhelpful for other editors. Durraz0 ( talk) 16:40, 14 June 2023 (UTC)
they are edit warring over several articles with each otheris false. Regarding WP:STALK, yes, it is my belief that AlexBachmann did stalk me to that page, as he reverted me within minutes, at an article he had never edited before. Am I supposed to not say anything if I feel I am being stalked? What am I supposed to do, just shut up and do nothing about it? What is WP:STALK for, then? I find it disturbing that you find the accusation of WP:STALK worse than the actual stalking behavior itself. It's as if you really really want me blocked. And the WP:CIR comes from the fact that he does not appear to understand the meaning of the word "civilization" [12], and numerous other incompetent edits such as these [13] (no admins decided anything, nor do admins decide on content disputes), or this [14] (poor sourcing). At Ioannina, he wasted the community's time for a month trying to add the Albanian name to the lede, and despite editors explaining to him that his google searched were flawed [15], he kept insisting. Because he didn't like a sentence at Albania [16], he kicked up a fuss at Greece in retaliation [17]. In addition to the obvious WP:BATTLE behavior pointed out by Future Perfect, the sentence he is proposing is extremely poorly worded, showing lack of competence. The Arvanites, Vlachs, Pomaks, he wants added to the lede are not "civilizations", they are minorities. Yes, there are competence issues here. So yes, I have been short with this user at times, because my patience with them is nearly exhausted. Even now at Talk:Greece, he refuses to let go, even though the sentence he objected to at Albania was changed. Lastly, Durraz0, I note this is the fourth time you post at an admin's page about me, and it is also obvious from the tone of your post that you are really in search of block. You are leaving out crucial context and magnifying the seriousness of the accusations ("very serious personal attacks", "they are edit warring over several articles with each other"), and it's obvious why.
Khirurg keeps replying to AlexBachmann with accusationsis also clearly false. Did I respond with accusations here [18] or here [19]? If you look at the whole picture, I have in fact been quite patient with AlexBachmann. I feel WP:HOUNDed, and perhaps a WP:BOOMERANG is in order for making false statements while going block-fishing.

Hello, I'm afraid I don't agree with your closure of Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/New Horizon Institute. As I explained in my argument to !keep for the time being, I don't think that sufficient WP:BEFORE research was done by the nominator or by anyone in the discussion, and that the language issue was also a factor. I understand that this is not strictly speaking an deletion policy argument, but I also object on the grounds that all other Wikipedia articles on secondary schools in Nepal have fewer sources or are completely unsourced, and that the one that had the largest number of references and substantive content was the one that was deleted first.

Hello friend. Quick question about redirects, if you're willing. A) Does the target article always have to have the redirect term in it? B) For example, Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/15955 Johannesgmunden is about an asteroid that will probably get deleted. Would it be appropriate to redirect something like that to Asteroid belt, or would that be a bad target because it doesn't contain the term 15955 Johannesgmunden?

I was wondering if there's a different way I should request the permission because I've already had it, or if others have just been too busy to see it. Thanks! greyzxq talk 16:11, 15 May 2023 (UTC)
Hi there. When I sent this to AfD, it did not add the AfD template to the article, so I re-did it. Now the template is on the article, but there are two discussions at AfD. Could you please delete one of them? Thank you. Onel5969 TT me 09:58, 17 May 2023 (UTC)

There your username does not appear in your signature, and without looking at the page's editing history it is impossible to tell who made the comment. Idk if you did that intentionally or it is unintentional. If the latter is the case, you might want to fix it. Ktrimi991 ( talk) 13:28, 18 May 2023 (UTC)
Hello sir, Please examine my contributions, and if you think I qualify, give me the chance to review new pages for a trial month to see whether I'm up to the task. As an AfC reviewer, I am knowledgeable about the CSD, XFD, PROD, GNG, SNG, and BLP policies. I believe this will help Wikipedia obtain a quality reviewer in the future.

I've redirected to Vanuatu national football team (as a possible search term), which people seem to forget that's an option at AfD. He seemed to be somewhat a bit of an important figure in the Island's national football and seems to do a lot for them. I thought I saw enough for WP:BASIC, so I am surprised with the delete verdict. Alas, I guess that happens know. All the best, Govvy ( talk) 15:01, 5 June 2023 (UTC)
Hello! I just wanted to give you a heads up that I did a partial revert of one of your edits, in case you wanted to revert or discuss on the talk page. The article you mentioned did lead with mentioning the number of U.S. deaths, but, on the second page, it mentioned studies of Brazilian and Italian cases, though it didn't have a year cap on them, so I was cheating a bit (I figured if there were dozens in the U.S. and some amount per year in other places, it was fair to say dozens of incidents globally—arguably a WP:SYNTH issue depending on how you view the basic math/count exception.) Still, to be safe, I reinserted the sentence but added citations to each study (and a couple more) rather just rely on the Lee-Kelland & Finlay study. It's ... really hard to read as a diff, but here's the diff: I'd suggest just scrolling to the explanatory note towards the bottom of the article.-- Jerome Frank Disciple 15:55, 6 June 2023 (UTC)
Hey, hoping this isn't weird. I've been working on that ImportGenius article, mostly because the IPhone redirect didn't make too much sense considering the more recent press coverage related to the war between Russia and Ukraine. It seems that they're infrequently the sole focus of an article, but they're often the sole source of data and/or analysis mentioned in the article.
https://www.wsj.com/amp/articles/chinese-drones-still-support-russias-war-in-ukraine-trade-data-show-cd39d40b https://www.nytimes.com/2023/05/15/business/economy/russia-airlines-sanctions-ukraine.html https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2023-05-02/russian-gold-is-in-hands-of-obscure-firms-as-jpmorgan-hsbc-exit Just to assess, do you think these articles are noteworthy in relation to ImportGenius? I don't think the inclusion of them as a source is trivial in the recent coverage, the content seems non-routine and independent. Any thoughts? I'll keep editing the article for now but I'd like to know what you think about the notability here.

Regarding the closure here, I think you have it the other way around - Template:User MiszaBot/Config was the one which was voted as a delete, and User:Lowercase sigmabot III/config was the one that had discussion about being turned into a wrapper or something else (and should therefore be the no consensus one).

Where is the review? Sorry, this feels like a stupid question. I've not been able to find the review.

Hello,
I just wanted to bring up that I did not accuse anyone of a nationalistic POV, but rather Khirurg. I claimed that he often reverts edits without discussing and have tried to prove that by clear and convincing evidence.
Thank you. AlexBachmann ( talk) 16:03, 7 June 2023 (UTC)
(unindent) @Rosguill: Speaking of aspersions, here is a small sample of what I am regularly subjected to:
This is just a small sample from recent days, but I could go on and on, it's basically non-stop at this point. There a number of things I want to work on, but I basically can't because I am consistently sidetracked with stuff like this. I can just easily provide examples of tag-teaming behavior, for example here [2]. If you look at the contribs history of the accounts removing the info, they all have something in common. I had previously filed at ANI giving a massive amount of evidence, but it seems it was filibustered [3]. I am a veteran editor and I don't make accusations lightly. But there is much more to the story than what the above editors are telling you. Thanks, Khirurg ( talk) 16:39, 8 June 2023 (UTC)

Hello @ Rosguill. Genuine question, a source says that Ilyas Gorchkhanov (the first leader of Ingush Jamaat who held his position up until his death in 2005) is subordinated to " Akhmad" (Akhmad Evloev, also known as Ali Taziev. Does this mean that Ingush Jamaat is part of ChRI? WikiEditor1234567123 ( talk) 10:31, 9 June 2023 (UTC)

Hi Rosguill. Some days ago you gave AE-logged warnings to Khirurg and AlexBachmann for personal attacks against each other. If you look at their editing history, they are edit warring over several articles with each other. They are also exchanging accusations on articles' talk pages and edit summaries, or making other off-topic comments. Some instances. I think that that edit summary with unproven WP:STALK accusations is far a from what is expected from editors in a content dispute. An admin noted on the talk page of Greece that AlexBachmann breached WP:POINT with their edit [8] as a "tit-for-tat" edit and called it an unhealthy battleground approach to editing. Khirurg , however, added unproven accusations of WP:STALK and WP:CIR [9]. Repeatedly accusing another editor in content disputes of stalking and lack of competence without proper evidence are very serious personal attacks. Khirurg keeps responding to AlexBachmann with accusations. The general discussion there does not seem concentrated on the content dispute itself. On Fier there is another inflammatory edit summary by Khirurg [10]. They are reverting each other on multiple articles. I think that an admin should take a look because this is becoming more and more unhelpful for other editors. Durraz0 ( talk) 16:40, 14 June 2023 (UTC)
they are edit warring over several articles with each otheris false. Regarding WP:STALK, yes, it is my belief that AlexBachmann did stalk me to that page, as he reverted me within minutes, at an article he had never edited before. Am I supposed to not say anything if I feel I am being stalked? What am I supposed to do, just shut up and do nothing about it? What is WP:STALK for, then? I find it disturbing that you find the accusation of WP:STALK worse than the actual stalking behavior itself. It's as if you really really want me blocked. And the WP:CIR comes from the fact that he does not appear to understand the meaning of the word "civilization" [12], and numerous other incompetent edits such as these [13] (no admins decided anything, nor do admins decide on content disputes), or this [14] (poor sourcing). At Ioannina, he wasted the community's time for a month trying to add the Albanian name to the lede, and despite editors explaining to him that his google searched were flawed [15], he kept insisting. Because he didn't like a sentence at Albania [16], he kicked up a fuss at Greece in retaliation [17]. In addition to the obvious WP:BATTLE behavior pointed out by Future Perfect, the sentence he is proposing is extremely poorly worded, showing lack of competence. The Arvanites, Vlachs, Pomaks, he wants added to the lede are not "civilizations", they are minorities. Yes, there are competence issues here. So yes, I have been short with this user at times, because my patience with them is nearly exhausted. Even now at Talk:Greece, he refuses to let go, even though the sentence he objected to at Albania was changed. Lastly, Durraz0, I note this is the fourth time you post at an admin's page about me, and it is also obvious from the tone of your post that you are really in search of block. You are leaving out crucial context and magnifying the seriousness of the accusations ("very serious personal attacks", "they are edit warring over several articles with each other"), and it's obvious why.
Khirurg keeps replying to AlexBachmann with accusationsis also clearly false. Did I respond with accusations here [18] or here [19]? If you look at the whole picture, I have in fact been quite patient with AlexBachmann. I feel WP:HOUNDed, and perhaps a WP:BOOMERANG is in order for making false statements while going block-fishing.

Hello, I'm afraid I don't agree with your closure of Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/New Horizon Institute. As I explained in my argument to !keep for the time being, I don't think that sufficient WP:BEFORE research was done by the nominator or by anyone in the discussion, and that the language issue was also a factor. I understand that this is not strictly speaking an deletion policy argument, but I also object on the grounds that all other Wikipedia articles on secondary schools in Nepal have fewer sources or are completely unsourced, and that the one that had the largest number of references and substantive content was the one that was deleted first.

Hello @ Rosguill, a certain user has significantly altered the Durdzuks article, under different IP-adrresses: user 1, user 2 and user 3. In talk page of the article, this user has made it clear that he does not trust many sources and references provided, and is heavily misusing the citation tag diff. Is this considered Sockpuppetry?

Hello friend. Quick question about redirects, if you're willing. A) Does the target article always have to have the redirect term in it? B) For example, Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/15955 Johannesgmunden is about an asteroid that will probably get deleted. Would it be appropriate to redirect something like that to Asteroid belt, or would that be a bad target because it doesn't contain the term 15955 Johannesgmunden? Thanks. – Novem Linguae ( talk) 06:04, 22 June 2023 (UTC)
